      @@kostaminin9957 - Yes!! Thank you. Drives me crazy too. I see the word used constantly in comment sections for bands & musicians, most of whom are insanely popular and have been around for numerous decades yet to those few idiots somehow they're "so underrated". Gimme a break. 🙄 Only underrated to *you* if you've been living under a rock or just discovered the band/musician like 5 seconds ago. Please just stop, it's nauseating and makes you sound like a pretentious jackass.

Nonstop top level rap would drop every month, this was just "very good" then, but now it would be the greatest of all time! We were so spoiled and didn't even know it.

      Big L is probably my favorite, Danger zone and the big picture are such dope albums. It's like an onslaught of punchlines. He has a song with Tupac and another with Jay z at his prime. He was on another level. Nas is ight. However, aside from illmatic his other albums are ehh. Kinda like eminem, after his SSLP and MMLP it was all down hill from there. Rakim deserves respect, after paid in full dropped it literally did change hip hop and added complexity. Dudes like pun, krs one, wu tang(nearly any member) MF DOOM, etc outshine him

      Stop talking shit on mumble rappers. Jazz rappers did it, it was called skatting. James brown did the same thing, so did Bone Thugs. If you want to talk about “real music” know your history and know that every generation has their thing that is influential to their era that the previous era called “noise”. Don’t become your parents/grandparents...sincerely, an 80s baby.

    The upside down shot always kills me when Questlove just casually loses one of his cymbals and keeps on drumming 😂

      I'm 32, I got into these guys in high school. Drawn by musicians that could actually play and lyricists that made you feel things. Definitely a classic group.

      Snares are cool but those cymbals are killing it. Try playing it on a high end system with all the bells and whistles and those highs are not only delicious but intoxicating. I crank that EQ up on those highs and I am in heaven. Cymbals= highs RULES and win every time .

      Hopefully you mean cymbals.
